GOSAT_FTS_L1b_band4

Variables

The table below lists the variables that are present in the HARP product that results from an ingestion of GOSAT_FTS_L1b_band4 data.

field name type dimensions unit description
datetime double {time} [seconds since 2000-01-01] start time of the measurement
longitude double {time} [degree_east] longitude of the measurement
latitude double {time} [degree_north] latitude of the measurement
radiance double {time, spectral} [W/(cm^2.sr.cm^-1)] radiances derived by taking the norm of the fourier transform of measured wavelengths
wavenumber double {time, spectral} [cm^-1] wavenumber for each point in the spectrum
index int32 {time}   zero-based index of the sample within the source product

Ingestion options

Mapping description

The table below details where and how each variable was retrieved from the input product.

field name mapping description
datetime path /exposureAttribute/pointAttribute/Time[]
description the record with year/month/day/hour/min/sec values is converted to a double precision floating point value that represents the amount of seconds since 2000-01-01 00:00:00
longitude path /exposureAttribute/pointAttribute/geometricInfo/centerLon[]
latitude path /exposureAttribute/pointAttribute/geometricInfo/centerLat[]
radiance path /Spectrum/TIR/band4/obsWavelength[]
description the radiance returned is the complex norm of the complex value that is stored in the product; in other words, what is returned is sqrt(real * real + imag * imag)
wavenumber path /exposureAttribute/pointAttribute/RadiometricCorrectionInfo/spectrumObsWavelengthRange_TIR
description the wavenumbers are calculated by evaluating the function a.x + b for x = 0 .. N-1 with a,b the wavelength range parameters in the product
